Hello Sunshine

I resisted the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits for as long as I could, honest I did! But resistance was futile, and I finally weakened and ordered them. (The Borg were right.)I've just seen so many cute and beautiful cards that use them and besides, one can never have too many dies, right? Gotta keep Mr. Big happy!

When my son was a little boy, I called him Sonshine. That was several decades ago, but he will always be my little boy. I made this card to send to him, for no particular reason other than to say "Hi" and I miss him. I hope it gives him a smile when he opens it.

I love the combination of black and white with a pop of color (red, yellow, or turquoise are great examples), so the sunburst design in the Cupcakes & Carousels DSP stack worked perfectly for this card. The black chevron pattern is in the Pop of Pink DSP pack. I have a hard time using chevron patterns, because looking at them makes my eyes feel wonky. But in small doses, like on this card, it can be tolerable.
